This is for the record...
I feel as if I am preaching to the choir, talking about how there has been a lot of cause to fear for the future. Rise of tyrannical governments, the march of what is effectively a secular Leftist cult, and assault on Western Culture by those who desire a single Globalist culture.
But what if I told you, thats only what the powers that be want you to believe? As has been said before: if they were winning, the propaganda would be unnecessary. And with that statement, I can already hear the blackpilled doomers complaining, but I will deal with that later.
If you need some starting proof, a few months ago, the Fabian Society (the group responsible for much of the ills of our current world) tried to declare an end to the culture war, because they are losing in it. The Fabians have whipped up their mob into a frenzy, which has allowed them some short-term power, but it has made it obvious what they are doing, and it turns out that a lot of people do indeed see it happening, and hate it. But their mob is so whipped up that they are effectively a self-driving machine who runs on their own bullshit in a self-feeding cycle. And that is bad for their cause.
Perhaps you are still unconvinced? Done worry, I have more. We start with the fact that more and more non-Leftist are starting to notice that they are indeed our enemy rather than just someone with a different opinion. And its resulting in opinions shifting. Perhaps the most important one is that trust in media can be described as "apocalyptic." Oh sure, the Democrats/Leftist still trust the media and are being influenced by the Globalist, but they were going to be anyway so that hasnt added to their ranks. Meanwhile, Independents have started turning against it, and the Right/Anti-Left is turning actively hostile. And stuff like what happened with the attempts to pretend nothing happened in Waukesha just further moves it along. Because while the Left is willing to live in their fake media-driven world, most average people know that its not normal to have your care frequently broken into. In fact, pretty much every major thing the Left is currently trying to push, most people know its crazy, and they are starting to fight back against it. Why do you think the school boards went crying to the Federal government, complaining about how the big bad parents are bullying them and leaving their shithole schools to start homeschooling in vast quantities, because they would rather not have their children brainwashed.
And that is where it starts. The counter-attack is here. There is a smaller, but older and wiser, individual I watch for some of my political commentary that put it in an interesting light. Essentially, you see the same sort of things happen all the time in war, including in political ones. The Left surprised the Right, doing things the average person never thought they would do, up to and including "fortifying" an election. Then in the months after their surprise attack, they have been on the offensive, taking anything and everything they wanted. This is where the tyranny and censorship comes in. But a sneak attack only works once, and once the moment is gone, and the enemy knows what you are doing, you better hope you had a Plan B. As it turns out, the Left did not. Much like the blackpilled doomers, they relied entirely on their tyranny and their "fortification" to win. But the Right has adapted to that. Enter: Scott Presler. Gay man and in general very much "non-traditional" by old school conservative standards. And the man who may have ensured Florida may stay Red for the foreseeable future. Also heavily involved in Virginia, and helped flip it. And this is just one man. Steve Bannon has thousands of such men winning in local offices, which is allow the Populist to run the Republican Party as their own personal instrument of revenge against the Left attempting to destroy their nation. And they are getting smart. A not often talked about aspect of what happened in Virginia is that many right-leaning Rural and Suburban counties held back their reported votes until the Cities reported theirs. Which means the "fortification" was too little, and therefore effectively meaningless.
And this was merely one state, one election. Not talked about as much is that across the country, the Left was utterly routed even with fortification attempts. New Jersey was much closer than it ever should have been, and next time they may not have the luxury, as now you will have a lot of Anti-Leftist who know you can win. Especially after a trucker with a few thousand dollar budget beat one of the most entrenched members of the New Jersey Senate. In Pennsylvania, the Right won a sweep, winning every judicial appointment up for grabs, kneecapping the power of the Governor who is an insane Leftist. Large swaths of Texas, with large Hispanic populations, showed that their shift toward the right was not a once off thing. Almost every schoolboard was won by the anti-woke. And that will continue, because even though the Fabians want to step back and get back into the shadows, their idiotic pets dont have the control to do that and are running around like the idiots they are shouting the plan to everyone, and more people are starting to believe them.
That is the thing about sneak attacks. They are not supposed to destroy you, they are supposed to make you surrender. If you dont, there are very few paths forward. Which is what the blackpilled dont understand. They want to take the bait and surrender because they believe the propaganda, instead of standing and fighting against an enemy so weak they need you to not fight as their only way to win. If you need someone to dopeslap you so that you stop marching around screaming about how its game over, do it. But find a post and start actually digging in and fighting. Plenty of others are doing it, and you even have some of the smart Leftist trying to run and hide because they can tell their reckoning is coming, and they dont want to be somewhere they can be found. They are openly talking about it now, and about how a lot of the up and coming members of the Right are absolutely wise to their tactics and theories, and wont be tricked as easily.
And if you need the ultimate proof: Kyle Rittenhouse. The whole media declared him guilty, did everything they could to threaten the jury along with their foot soldiers, and ran with false news, demanding what they wanted. And the jury, made up of normal people, looked at them, spit in their face, and said "Get bent, weirdos."
So, to the rest of you apes, stand your post, Get some fucking hype, and Hold! The! Fucking! Line!
And we are now at the end. Once again, if they were winning, none of what they have done would be necessary. Take heart to that. And with one final meme to set the tone, this is TheModernDaVinci signing off, for now.
I don't think that we need to "hold the line".
I think we need to absolutely subvert the shit out of these bastards.
I still see the coming economic collapse as the end-game for Fabianism. The last ditch effort because they know that Leftism, as a philosophy of War, requires permanent expansion. This is why the old "Truman Doctrine" actually made sense to defeat Communism. Just like a pyramid scheme: if you prevent it's expansion, it reaches it's maximum limit and fucking implodes.
Once it collapses, their next move is one of two methods:
For Leftist Racialism:
National Socialism is effectively resurgent in the Black population of the US, and is being exported to Europe. I watched the Lotus Eaters podcast talk about how there were schools in the UK introducing segregation where it had never been. The entire Pan-African movement is all National Socialism, and the individual "anti-colonial" movements in Africa are all ethno-socialist or tribal-socialist.
Co-Opting Western Civic Nationalism by creating what the Left has already called "Neo-Patriotism", is a scheme they've been up to in recent years. They hate America, but they are happy to be jingoist as fuck when it suits them. If they re-seized Nationalism as a Progressive concept, they could attack Liberal societies as a kind of "Capitalist Imperial Project". We've already seen bits of this in what I've called "Supra Nationalism" where people have nationalist sentiment and rhetoric for the EU, and call themselves Proud Europeans, while denouncing the "imperial" history of the UK.
It would not at all surprise me to watch the Leftists, re-assert Nationalist Socialism as a norm going forward, claiming that Leftism and Socialism is a key aspect of the National Character of Ireland, Scotland, France, Wales, and even Italy, Spain, and Germany.
This is why Richard Spencer is ahead of the game. Racial Socialist policies have no chance on the political right with Libertarians, Philosophical Liberals, Militarists, and Theocrats. All of these systems are explicitly anti-Racialist. The Evangelicals would rather ally with West African Christians, rather than side with godless white Communists (and for good reason). Liberals already get the bullet to. Libertarians don't recognize government regulation of race. And most Militarists are Civic Nationalists.
When the Left abandoned Marxism, they created Fascism and National Socialism as a way of achieving a pragmatic solution invoking the Socialist revolution. All of the warning signs are here. I would argue that the modern environmentalist movement is very much a National Socialist Environmentalism. Hell, I'm pretty sure that Klaus Schawb's dad was a genuine Nazi. The German Green party was founded by them. Fascistic and totalitarian policies are being normalized. Racial Socialism is too.
I'd say they are about 50% of the way there to redefining a bunch of words and asserting Neo-National Socialism of some kind. Something like: "Ethnic Syndicalism" or some shit.
And it is at that precise moment, the Leftists among us will unfurl their banners and reveal their true selves to be the Communists they always were. I'm watching you faggots.
For Liberation Theology:
This is in the event that the Leftists attempt to subvert or co-opt any significant religious revival movement in the West. Liberation Theology is already a very present thing in South America. It is the merging of Catholicism, it's philosophical roots in founding Social Justice, and Marxism. Liberation Theology is basically why the Pope is cuck, and why it's been hard to root out Leftism from South America.
The Left has already embraced a secular religion, but it would take no effort to turn it into an actual religion. There is no reason why George Floyd can't literally be canonized as a saint. This is an easier transition for the Left to make, and I think it's a more likely one, to be honest. This would appeal to much of the world's religious views, and would weaponize Christianity against itself. It would probably cause a genuine Catholic Schism between European/South American Catholics, and American Catholics.
Although there's a lot of atheistic Leftists, I think that the atheists could be easily brought along with the same kind of religious indoctrination and shaming that we already see present. The Atheism+ crowd does not have the balls to resist their religious zealotry. I would be horrified, but not at all surprised, if suddenly Sam Harris, Richard Dawkins, or Bill Nye publicly renounced atheism and a conversion to Liberation Theology.
I'd say the Left are about 80% of the way there now.
For what it is worth, I was mostly being dramatic for the purpose of narrative, but your point is correct. Luckily, like I pointed out in the main post, you have the likes of Scott Presler and Steve Bannon doing just that, going into the turf of the Left and the RINO types, smacking their nuts, and then taking over their turf for the Populist future.
True. But I think its less likely to end in their favor than I was a few years ago. They have ripped off their own mask and are running around screaming like a babbling crazy person, so now even normies are starting to seek ways out (more homeschooling, more people seeking alternative sources of wealth, moving away from large cities, etc). And the Fabians dont have the power to actually force it, so they may be forced to cut their losses and go running away from America to wherever they want to set up next (probably China, but New Zealand and Australia also seem likely due to the way they have been going). But the whole "Great Narrative" of the WEF is falling apart in real time, so I still believe they will lose
Funny you should mention that. I have seen data that shows that Catholicism is actually on the decline in South America, in favor of the various sects of American Protestantism. And it is indeed tied to the Catholics becoming very woke under the Pope, while Protestantism is much more difficult to subvert as it has no or limited central authority. Which incidentally is part of the reason it exploded during the Reformation in the first place.
implying they havent already done so
I also agree with your larger point that it seems much more likely that the Woke will descend into becoming a new religion. It is entirely within their past and their nature, and the Woke Ideology is already not too far removed from the Cult of Reason from the French Revolution, right down to their "Year Zero, All must begin again" attitude toward just about everything that exist.
So either Nazis or the French Revolution? Both required expansion and enemies until they couldn't go any further.
I'm thinking it's FR because of the loss of control happening now. Nazis will be overwhelmed by their own desires while the FRs will constantly come up with new enemies till there is no one left guarding the gates.
What's the difference?
I'm only half-joking, but this is the whole purpose of all power-bubbles. More dramatic examples are like Alexander's Death, or the fall of the Assyrian Empire.
They expanded military and captured as much of the known world as they could, then they hit a wall and fucking imploded.
Agreed. I think the implosion will simply be different, not that the implosion won't happen.
The French Revolution had rioters, and rioter events. Eventually, the leadership was killed, and then those that killed them were killed. It started organized and then couldn't control itself.
The Nazis wanted to have camps for those they disagreed with, and expand into other territories. They got overwhelmed by all those they disagreed with. There was organization the entire time, just not enough to deal with everything happening.
The National Socialists were actually desperate to keep themselves afloat, which is why they went into other territories to pillage. Inflation can't hurt you if you have less people, and more free assets. But, inevitably, you hit a tipping point that you can't overcome. You can't kill enough of your own people, and you can't steal enough assets, to overcome the hole you dug yourself in; and the whole house of cards comes down on your head.
